Marco Borriello (27 Viewers)
- Thread starter Fake Melo
- Start date
He has ambition, he seems determined to bounce back, eager to play and prove his value after a long pause.
He has convinced himself that he is one of Italy's greatest strikers and that he can score 15 goals/6months so def +20/season.
He is motivated against Bilan and the current Roma board/coach.
He has already accepted a subs role.
Lets see what he can do, imo showing glimpses of champion potential means nothing for a player of his age, maybe wasted potential, but nothing more.
He is highly inconsistent and imo, not as clinical as he thinks he is.
He is no more mercenary than Zlatan and for his criticism should be on his lack of consistency mediocre performances.
If he is unavailable for medical or ethic reason, just one day in the next 6months, we should not buy him.
The nationalistic enthusiasm for NT caps was there, as expected and it has confirmed my point for the actual reasons of this acquisition
(once again i was proven right for what i said on Tevez thread)

Just watched the interview. I liked it. I'll still stay sceptical about him and hope he gives his best for us.
Well he did say something along the lines of "lets take one step at a time. I want to learn the mentality of the squad" when asked again about the NT. So he's putting the club ahead of his NT ambitions.

Borriello is not at fault here, he was very careful on anything he said and i was very pleased of his comments.
Whats disgusting is the way he was presented by tuttosport and other Italian media and the reporters questions also reflect that the interest on the player is heavily bonded with those NT caps and perspective.
It is not Borriello's fault that he is a mediocre Italian players who opts to play for his NT.
On the contrary, thats a healthy ambition, i admire and respect personally.
Its our managers fault though that they are giving priority on the fact that he has the Italian nationality and some NT caps and nothing beyond there...
This comes in line with the bigger banner that was carried by our fans, the one that criticized the transfer, mostly giving the blame on Marotta, rather than the ones the reporters chosen to outline for the interview and has to do with the usual crap thrown on every merk, regardless of quality and nationality.
Play, no? He cant play
But he is a forward and forwards are expected to create spectacle with their offensive attempts.
This is the reason we are keep giving priority, most of our budget and attention and bringing new forwards in each and every transfer window, in the past 6 years... (and CMs, for similar reasons)
